● Use a pipe and a container to collect the used fluid.
● Remove the protective caps from the bleed screws (1) on
each front calliper, and then place a hose on the bleed
screw. The other end of the hose should be placed in an
empty container.
● Gently unscrew the bleeder screw (1) and the cap (2).
● Repeatedly press the brake pedal (3) until all the fluid has
drained out.
● When all the fluid has been drained, remove the cap (2),
the diaphragm (4) and top up to the maximum level with
brake fluid.
● Tighten the bleed screw (1) to
12 Nm
, and then press the
brake pedal (3) three or four times.
● Clean the brake fluid on the bleed screws.
● Loosen the bleeder screw (1) of the front right calliper.
Brake fluid should flow out.
● Retighten the bleed screw, and repeat this step several
times to feed the circuit properly. Remember to add brake
fluid to the master cylinder as required.
● Bleed the circuit so that the brake fluid flowing out of the
hose contains no air bubbles.
● Retighten the calliper bleed screw (1), remove the pipe
and reapply the protective cap.
● Repeat the operation for the front left calliper.

● Top up the brake fluid in the master cylinder to its
maximum level, and retighten the cap (2) and the
diaphragm (4).
►
An air bubble in the brake system can lead to
a partial or total lost of brake and may lead to
a serious or even fatal injury.
►
Leaks in the brake system may lead to a
serious or even fatal injury.
►
Moisture in the brake fluid may cause vapour
lock and a sudden loss of braking power,
may lead to a serious or even fatal injury.
►
Use brake fluid DOT 4 only.
►
Test the brake after each bleed.
●
We recommend that you drain and refill the
brake circuit after every brake pad change. This
will allow you to maintain optimum braking
performance.
●
To bleed your brake system more rapidly,
we recommend the priming system SODIKART
(Ref. OU951.002).
●
Store the used brake fluid in labelled
containers until it is collected by a specialist
waste disposal company.
●
The brake liquid does not contain petrol, so
never pour the liquid into an oil tank.
●
Brake fluid absorbs water. Make sure the
replacement brake fluid comes from a container
that has been stored in good conditions and is
recent.
●
Check that the pedal is firm after each bleed.
